We have been making good progress in Commerce this last week.  The final blocks were layed on Thursday and Javier had already started forming the 10” x 18” concrete ring beam that is going to be poured on top of the wall.  We wrestled over pouring or spraying the ring beam, but then decided that one that big would probably be faster poured than sprayed.  The ring beam will have 5 #6 bars in it, as well as #5 uprights into the dome every 12″.  We expect the ring beam to be poured tomorrow, and inflation to happen on Thursday.  You are all invited, and you can email me for more specific directions.  To see all the pictures, click here.
